<p>[QUOTE="Exskywarrior, post: 2376565, member: 74848"]I truly appreciate the advice and banter on this sight. I am a novice collector, and probably in comparison to others always will be. But I'm happy, and learn something new everyday. I have made only one coin purchase off of fleabay, and sold one coin. Neither being a favorable experience. Needed to test the waters I suppose. The 1873 2 cent coin was part of a bulk purchase at an estate sale, along with that we're the two Morgan's that I wanted plus a couple graded Franklins, Kennedy's, and state quarters. Raw coins included an 1856 seated half dime, 1876 seated dime, and a partial Roosevelt dime collection. My research on the 2 cent piece was dead end after dead end. Yes 600 closed 3 proofs, and 500 open 3 proof coins minted, I got that. But being the novice that I am I thought why not the possibility of an error proof. Hence the posting to the pros. I must admit I'm a little gun shy to post the seated coins for opinions. Ha! just kidding, I have thick skin and am a firm believer in no such thing as a stupid question. Thanks again, Michael[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
